Several epidemiologic studies have indicated an increased risk of lung cancer among welders we used the synergy project database to assess welding as a risk factor for developing lung cancer the database includes data on 15,483 male lung cancer cases and 18,388 male controls from 16 studies. Endotoxin has been proposed to be protective for the development of lung cancer a recent large pooled case-control study on lung cancer by peters et al does not seem to support the previous findings, especially among farmers, regarding a possible protective effect of endotoxin the authors concluded that occupational. In march 2017, 17 scientists from ten countries met at the international agency for research on cancer (iarc lyon, france) to evaluate the carcinogenicity of welding, molybdenum trioxide, and indium tin oxide these assessments will be published in volume 118 of the iarc monographs1 worldwide.

Excess cancer risk among welders has been reported in several cohort [5–7] and case–control [3,8–11] studies and in meta-analyses [4,12–14] contemporary epidemiological evidence points to an increased lung cancer risk, particularly among stainless steel welders [15] stainless steel welding fumes contain high levels. Exposure-response analyses of asbestos and lung cancer subtypes in a pooled analysis of case-control studies epidemiology 2017 28: 288-299 if: 5986 528 effects of exposure to welding fume on lung function: results from the german weldox study adv exp med biol 2015 834: 1-13 if: 1953 439. Of the 12 case-control studies on the association between lung cancer and exposure or employment as a welder, two detected no excess risk of the remaining ten, four no overall excess risk for either acute or all leukaemia was observed in a pooled analysis of data from several studies of welders.

And cadmium in two population-based case-control studies in montreal présenté par rachelle beveridge cadmium, chromium vi and nickel and subsequent risk of lung cancer is therefore timely and pertinent cadmium by duration of exposure in a pooled analysis of two montreal-based studies table 9 odds ratios. The risk of any sino-nasal epithelial cancer was significantly related to prior exposure to wood dust, leather dust, organic solvents, welding fumes and arsenic the increased risk for ad with low-intensity wood dust exposure appears to contradict the results from a pooled analysis of 12 case-control studies by demers et.

Numerous cohort and case–control studies have been carried out these studies were synthesised in several meta-analyses, including the most recent one, a pooled analysis of case–control studies that demonstrated a 50% increase in the risk of lung cancer associated with exposure to welding fumes2–4.

We performed a pooled analysis of six case–control studies (1961 cases and 2609 controls) contributing to the international lung cancer consortium when the information was available (mlcs, toronto and weld), periods ( years or months) of suspension from hormone use were considered in.

Idence for the carcinogenicity of welding emissions in humans also considered by iarc was the positive asso- ciation of lung cancer with exposure to welding fumes that was seen in an analysis of data pooled from 21 case- control and 27 cohort studies conducted between 1985 and 1989 the results of that analysis were.
